Pendril River
The wide and slow flowing Pendril River traditional marks the border between the Denton and Menter Plains. Other than the names of the grasslands on either side of its banks, however, there isn't much difference. Rolling hills with tall grass and sparse stands of trees along the riverbank toward its source and flat lands with tall grass and thicker stands of trees lined it further downstream. The bison and antelope common to the Denton Plains use the water to drink and bath along its northern shore and the antelope, zebra, elephants and giraffe do the same on the southern one. Due to its width, the slow-moving river acts as a barrier, keeping the various herds separated.
The waters of the Pendril River tend toward dark brown or even red, the slow current picking up sediment as it travels south and east. Beneath its waters fish of all shapes and sizes swim among the river grasses. The water itself is too cold for crocodiles and large snakes, but it is deep enough to allow for massive catfish, gar, and the occasional shark that wanders up from the Eldorian Sea to provide a hazard to all that might enter its depths.
